Hot Rods What you see today??

...saw these at 2 local shows this weekend,...the 40 Ford p.u. had a 312 T-bird engine.

 

A white '57 T'bird... Sorry, no pictures..

 

Like Deuces, no pic but an unrestored, unrodded '49 Merc. No skirts,
no chop, a flathead, light surface rust at worst and plates dating back to
'69. Normally, I would have asked to take a photo but this elderly
couple were relaxing in their lawn chairs in front of the garaged car
while running a garage sale. In the next stall of this split-stall garage
was a 289 equipped '66 Mustang convertible. This was in an old section
of a small town in Illinois. Imagine the cars in garages that we don't get
to see.

I can't post the two pics I took of a 1970 Opel GT sitting outside a repair
shop while the car's owner decides what he wants done to it. I can't
imagine how long it's been since I last saw an Opel GT. Decades wouldn't
be an exaggeration.

 

Small world I also saw a white T-bird cruising down Lakeshore Drive in Holland....same car???

 

Small show/fundraiser today.

A few more.

 

I spent the day at a Thunderbird show in Anaheim. Something you don’t see every day.. 2 57 “ F “ birds.

 

Nor-Cal Cars & Coffee - Rocklin

 

Saw a kool 59 Olds Saturday. The owner, who I know, has had it a couple years. He is in his 80’s and drove away from his wedding with his bride of 60+ years in it. Kool mild custom Olds.

 

Some shots from a couple shows over the weekend

 

I'm posting this here instead of the Corvette hot rod thread because I had posted a stock Corvette in that thread before and some folks took exception because it wasn't a hot rod.

 

Sky: No apologies due. One of the self-appointed HAMB police posts pictures of OT 67's on that thread.
Nice Vette and the blue one next to it.

 

Post away. Some of the people on here would argue if the sun were shining......or not.

 

Technically I saw this Saturday.

 

The problem is me... I don't know the difference between a C3 or a C6 or a C whatever. I have to listen to the Corvette guys. I do know what C4 is though.
I try not to get into trouble.
@lonejacklarry and @Oilguy , thanks for the support

 

Here is the other end

 

So that is a 58. It has the phony louvers on the hood and the chrome strips on the trunk lid. Missed those louvers in the first photo and thought 59 or 60. Good photo.

 

two more.

 

This is a '54
